Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in Germany: a prospective 12-year surveillance.

TL;DR: Since 1993, there has been an increasing incidence of CJD, from 0.7 in 1993 to 1.6 in 2005 with a quite stable level since 1998, during this period, the proportion of patients with MV and VV codon 129 genotype rose, possibly because of better identification of atypical subtypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stability and Reproducibility Underscore Utility of RT-QuIC for Diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.

TL;DR: The present study underlines the reproducibility and high stability of RT-QuIC across various CSF storage conditions with a remarkable sensitivity and specificity, suggesting RT- QuIC as an innovative and robust diagnostic method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristic CSF prion seeding efficiency in humans with prion diseases.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PrPSc characteristics in the CSF of human prion disease patients are associated with disease subtypes and rate of decline as defined by disease duration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical findings and diagnostic tests in the MV2 subtype of sporadic CJD.

TL;DR: Prolonged disease duration, early and prominent psychiatric symptoms, absence of typical EEG, thalamic hyperintensities on MRI and relatively low 14-3-3 protein sensitivity may be suspicious for variant CJD.
